My biggest problem with the ticks is that they're dead keys if you want to be able to write accented characters easily. I write à code sample` way too often.

You could consider using the compose key instead of dead keys. Diacritic characters take a three-key chord instead of two ([compose ` a] instead of [` a]), but all programming characters type as-is. The right alt is usually chosen as compose key.
